The Right Slice | Kalaheo, Kauai
Starting Pay: $25 per hour during training
$25–$30 per hour after successful completion of training, based on performance, skills, and responsibilities
Looking for more than just another bakery job?
The Right Slice has been making award-winning pies on Kauai since 2009. We're a locally owned specialty pie shop with a loyal customer base, a strong team culture, and employees who often stay with us for years.
We love hiring from our local community, and because of the early morning schedule, candidates from Omao through Waimea often find this position works especially well. We do not accept applications from outside of this area.
We're looking for an experienced baker who takes pride in consistency, works well independently, and enjoys being part of a small team where everyone contributes.
This is not an entry-level position. We're looking for someone with baking experience who can confidently follow recipes, manage production, and maintain high standards in a fast-paced kitchen.
The ideal candidate enjoys working independently, takes pride in staying organized, and understands that consistency is just as important as creativity in a professional bakery. Experience with commercial or production baking is highly valued.
We're a small, tight-knit team—some of our staff have been with us for more than 10 years—so finding the right fit matters. We're looking for someone interested in building a long-term career with a consistent schedule, opportunities for growth, and a workplace that values quality, teamwork, and reliability.
